Spacetime Studios, the guys behind Pocket Legends and Star Legends, have released their latest MMO, and yes, it ends with the word “Legends.” The “Legends” series are certainly one of the most popular mobile MMOs to ever launch and Spacetime Studio’s cross-platform model has been an industry leader. Dark Legends continues this model and is the first MMO to launch simultaneously on mobile and desktop platforms. Interestingly enough, Spacetime Studios has opted to launch Dark Legends on Android before iOS, ending a trend long held by the majority of developers.

March 27th is here, and as promised, Imagani Studios has released Temple Run onto the Google Play Store. This highly addictive game has been winning over iOS users for months and has been downloaded over 40 million times.

I downloaded it myself an hour ago and my kids have been fighting over it ever since.

I personally share a love/hate relationship with their amazing mobile games and horrific marketing techniques but I’ll spare you any rants. I’m here to let you know that another hit Gameloft game has made it to the Google Play Store and the best part is it’s free. You’re going to want to check out Six-Guns, a kill-or-be-killed third person shooter that mixes the wild West with the supernatural. Six-Guns will have you gunslinging for gold as you explore the open lands of Arizona and Oregon with challenges and evil lurking around every tumbleweed.

It appears Rovio is running out of holidays in which to update their popular Angry Birds franchise with as they are now planning to send their angry aviators out into space. That’s right, the final frontier, to boldly go where no bird has gone before. Rovio is teaming up with NASA and National Geographic to release Angry Birds Space and we can only assume it will feature some anti-gravity maneuvers, green alien pigs, and warp drive slingshots.
